Can someone translate the above Hindi couplet for me?

 Mr. Ramani, the rough traslation in English is:

drums, illiterate( it is not the exact traslation of Ganwar, but something like this)  shudra( low caste people), animals, and women needs to be tortured/ beaten. It is enunciated in Manu Smriti which guided the Hindu laws. Look at this from women's rights, animal rights and human rights ( caste related, and women related both) perspective!

Akkha yeh shehar bada
Apni jaib mein pada
Khulla raaj hai bas kya
Ungli yeh trigger pe hai
Daring bhi jigar mein hai
Apni taath hai bas kya
O apna time hai, aish cash bhi zabardast hai

Lekin Mahoday, meri aapse aur aapki vaanarsena se appeal hai ki aap log Angreji ka virodh jaari rakhen aur kaskar Hindi ka Langot bandhe rahen aur bade bade pattharon par Hindi me likhen “Jai Shreeram” aur samudra me daalkar pul banaakar videshon me bhi apne Zande gaaden.

Haan, Gale me Dhol-Manjeera zaroor latkaaye rakhen aur jor-jor se Hindi me “Ram-Dhun” gaate rahen.. Koi sune ya na sune..

Yahi hammari Hardik Shubhechchha hai.

APNI AANKH PHODO AUR SAKCHHAT DARSHAN KARO

Kya hua, ki ek gaon me mandir me ek ponga pandit pujaari bana baitha tha. Ek din wo raat me mandir ki daan peti me se chori kar raha tha. Usi samay Ganpati ka chhota sa vaahan uske pair ke oopar se hokar bhaaga. Wo ponga pandit darkar uchhla aur gir pada. Uski aankh daan peti ke kinaare takarakar foot gai. Wo bechaara dhoort dar gaya ki ab sabere gaon waale poochhenge ki Mahaaraj ye aankh kaise foot gai to main kya jawaab doonga? Meri chori ki pol khul jaayegi aur sab muze “KAANA BAAMAN-KAANA BAAMAN” kahkar chidhaayenge.  So usne kuchh anaap shanaap chillana shuru kar diya “MUZE BHAGWAAN NE DARSHAN DIYE.. MUZE BHAGWAAN NE DARSHAN DIYE…”.

 

Uski notanki ki awaaz sunkar gaon wale doude chale aaye, “KAHAN HAIN BHAGWAAN?.. KAHAN HAIN BHAGWAAN???..”. To us dhoort moorkh ne jawaab diya- “BHAGWAAN NE MUZE SAPNE ME AAKAR KAHA KI YADI MAIN APNI EK AANKH PHOD LOON TO WO MUZE DARSHAN DENGE SO MAINE APNI EK AANKH PHOD LI.  YADI KISI KO BHAGWAN KE SAKCHHAAT DARSHAN KARNA HAI WO APNI AANKH PHOD LE..”.

 

Khair tab to sabhi apne-apne ghar chale gaye. Lekin thodi der baad ek bhola bhala admi aaya aur usne us ponga pandit se poochha ki “YADI MAIN BHI APNI EK AANKH PHOD LOON TO KYA MUZE BHI BHAGWAN DARSHAN DENGE?..”. Ab wo ponga pandit to yahi chahta that so usne kaha “JAJMAAN MUZ PAR BHAROSA KARO MAIN TO SARVGYANI HOON SAARE VED PURAAN RAMAYAN GEETA UPNISHAD KA PRAKAND PANDIT HOON MAIN. MUZ PAR AVISHWAS KAROGE TO TUMHEN GHOR PAAP LAGELA MOORKH..”.

 

Wo bechaara bhola admi uski dhoort ki baaton me aa gaya so usne us ponga pandit se kaha- “THIK HAI MAHARAAJ AAP MERI AANKH PHOD DO..?. Bas, us dhoort ki scheme kaam kar gai, so usne garam lohe par chot maar di aur us bechare ki ek aankh phod di. Pahle to bechara bhola admi bahut dard se tadpa liken fir usne us ponga pandit se poochha-“KAHAN HAIN BHAGWAAN?.. So us ponga pandit ne jawaab diya-“ARE MOORKH ! LAGTA HAI TOONE PICHHALE JANAM ME BAHUT PAAP KIYE HAIN.. BRAHMANON KI SEWA NAHEEN KI HOGI.. ISLIYE BHAGWAAN TUZSE NAARAAZ HAIN..”.

 

Us ponga pandit ki baat sunkar wo bechara rone laga ki ab mai kaana ho gaya log muze kaana-kaana kahkar chidhayenge. To us ponga pandit ne use salaah di-“DEKH !  TOO BHI KAANA AUR MAI BHI KAANA, SO AISA KARTE HAIN.. AB HAM DONO MILKAR SABSE KAHENGE KI HAMNE APNI AANKH PHOD LI TO BHAGWAN NE HAMEN DARSHAN DIYE. IS TARAH HAM MILKAR SABKO BARGALAAYENGE. DHEERE-DHEERE SAB KAANE HO JAAYENGE TO FIR HAMEN KOI NAHEEN CHIDHAAYEGA..BOLO KYA BOLTE HO?..”

HaHahahaha…!!....!!!..........

 Knowledge is POWER. Knowledge makes aware. Awarenss creates way to freedom and brings out of exploitation whch happns due to unawareness. English gives worldwide knowledge and brings out of shortsightedness. But selfish leaders do not like it since if people become aware their selfish politics will go defeated so.

36 Crore Devi-Devta behind all injustice

 

 Before, 26 January 1950 when the democracy adopted (Equal Citizenship), there were 35 Crore population if India and 36 Crore DEVI-DEVTA.. And there were ever exploitation of poor by the MOST ANTI-RELIGIOUS ANTI-SOCIAL ELEMENTS in the name of CASTISM IN SO CALLED RELIGION.  Even more than one DEVI-DEVTA were there behind every one human.  So we can come to the conclusion that these DEVI-DEVTAs were behind every injustice. NO ??????

Democratic Indian (n/a)     14 March 2011

Tripathiji,

What is the point you are trying to prove? Are you trying to say that:

1) It is ONLY Hindi that has historical background or place in India? Other languages can be pushed back into oblivion?

2) Just because Hindi for some appears to have some historical background(inflated or percieved) that makes it the national language. Following your logic and reasoning

a) Castism(discrimination and slavery to ensure that certain groups of the society are not free individuals)

b) Sati(finishing the identity of women as free individuals, thereby practically making them slaves to their husbands)

c) Dowry(silent way of saying, since women are not free individuals thus have no property rights in their parental home)

d) Child marriage(peodophillia legalised)

These had much greater role and impact in shaping our historical background and were  practised in every corner of the country. Should these also be made part of our national culture?

2) When you are quoting KM Munshi, are you saying that it is ONLY Hindi that is keeping the country together! The will of people has no place in keeping the country together! Other languages have no place to keep India together! Are you saying economy has no place to keep any country together? What a logic and reasoning and that too from an Advocate! Which language is helping run our economy? Which language gave the people of this country the ideas of Equality, Freedom and Liberty to break the shackes of slavery and ensured that Castism, Sati, Dowry and Child marriage need to be outlawed? Future of people lies in which language if they have to stay out of discrimination? Which language our Constitution was written in? Which language is giving us the light of science and technology?

"OWNING" and "USING" are not always the same thing.


We "USE" aeroplane to travel abroad & return, but after returning  we don't need it anymore. It is not necessary that we have to "OWN" a aeroplane to travel.


We "USE" bus to go to office or college (for the development of country) and return, but we don't have to "OWN" a bus for the development of country.


Same way is the English, we "USE" English to communicate (or development) all over the world but it is not necessary that we should "OWN" it too.

Democratic Indian (n/a)     14 March 2011

Debate is not between "owning" and "using". Do we own Castism, do we own Sati, do we own Dowry system, do we own Child marriage?

Moreover if someone is regularly "using" a car for his work, will he prefer to "own" a car or would he like to "own" a bullock cart so that he can "use" it for same work?


(Guest)

"USING" means "SPEAKING" or "COMMUNICATING" and "OWNING" means "NATIONAL LANGUAGE".

So i have replied bang on target of the topic of the thread -

 

ENGLISH can be NATIONAL AND OFFICIAL LANGUAGE of UOI

 

We do not own castism, sati, dowry, child marriage, we use it for our own profits or other reasons.

Castism - For discrimation of lower castes.

Sati - It was earlier used, but now i think it doesn't exist.

Dowry - People use it for their own profits.

Child marriage - Lack of education or poverty.


Moreover, if someone is "USING" a "STOLEN" car, would he prefer to "OWN" it or stick with his two wheeler?


By the way, thread is on national language, then why are you talking about dowry.

What dowry has to do with English.

Democratic Indian (n/a)     15 March 2011

"Moreover, if someone is "USING" a "STOLEN" car, would he prefer to "OWN" it or stick with his two wheeler?"

Pesron who is already "USING" a "STOLEN" car, how likely is it that he is the real owner of two vehicle? And if you are trying to use this example with English as a language being "STOLEN" by Indians, then it is harsh on part of you. Indians are not thieves to have "STOLEN" a language rather they were given it as a gift and they have adopted it.

"By the way, thread is on national language, then why are you talking about dowry.What dowry has to do with English."

If you read the "justification provided by Tripathiji and my reply to it, you will be able to understand the context in which it has been used.

So far the question of National language is concerned even Courts have stated Hindi is not the National language.

The court said that the Constituent Assembly while discussing the Language Formula noticed the recommendation of the Sub-Committee on Fundamental Rights, which recommended the formula as per which, “Hindustani, written either in Devanagari or the Persian scriptt at the option of the citizen, shall, as the national language, be the first official language of the Union. English shall be the second official language for such period as the Union may, by law, determine.”

However, in the constitution, Hindi was declared as an official language and not a national language.

The court in its order said Part XVII of the Constitution deals with Official Language. Under Article 343, official language of the Union has been prescribed, which includes Hindi in Devanagari scriptt and English.
